Terms of Use
Short version: ZivBase is a private tool for P.D. Roth’s office. The public form lets you send information to the office. It is not a dating site, and nothing you send is shown to the public. Invited staff and shadchanim also agree to the Member Terms and Confidentiality Agreement, which adds stricter duties.
Who this is for
ZivBase has two parts. The office tool is invite-only: only people the office has invited may sign in, and they may use it only for the office’s work and within the permissions given. The public “Submit your information” form is open to parents, relatives and individuals who want the office to consider a person for introductions. ZivBase is operated by the office of P.D. Roth; it was designed by Stratified Signal and built by Unified Array.
What the form is, and is not
- It is a private way to send details and a resume to the office.
- It is not a dating site, a public listing or a directory. There is no browsing, searching or messaging between visitors.
- Nothing you send is displayed on this website.
- Sending a submission does not make you a client, and it does not create an agreement for services.
Reviewed by the office
A member of the office reads every submission. Nothing is added to the office’s records until the office accepts it. The office may decline a submission, or ask for more information, and does not have to give a reason.
No guarantee
The office works with care, but it cannot promise that an introduction will be suggested, that anyone will respond, that any introduction will lead to a match, or any response time. The information held may be incomplete, out of date or wrong, because it comes from many sources; nobody should rely on it without checking directly. Availability or marital status shown in the workspace is the office’s last known note, not a guarantee.
Acceptable use
When you use the form or the office tool, you agree to:
- Send only information that is true to the best of your knowledge and that you are permitted to share. If it is about someone else, you confirm you have the right or their permission to share it.
- Not send anything unlawful, abusive, misleading or harmful, and not impersonate another person.
- Not submit information about anyone under 18.
- Not upload files containing viruses or other harmful code, or files other than the types the form accepts.
- Not try to break, overload or bypass the security of the site, including the anti-spam checks, or to reach information that is not yours; not scrape, copy or collect people’s details.
- Not use the site to send unsolicited messages, or for any purpose other than introductions through the office.
- For invited users: keep your sign-in private, use the tool only within the permissions the office gave you, and follow the Member Terms.
Your information
How we collect, use and keep what you send is explained in the Privacy Notice. By submitting the form you confirm that you have read it. You keep your rights in what you send; you give the office permission to store and use it privately for the purposes described there.
Availability and changes
We try to keep the site available and secure, but it is provided as it is and we cannot promise it will always work without interruption. We may change, suspend or stop parts of it.
Disclaimers
To the fullest extent the law allows, the site, the form and the office tool are provided “as is” and “as available”, without promises of any kind, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, completeness or uninterrupted operation. Nothing here is legal, religious, medical or other professional advice. Introductions are made in good faith and the people involved decide for themselves whether to proceed.
Limit of liability
To the fullest extent the law allows, the office, its staff, and the people who designed and built ZivBase are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive losses, or for loss of opportunity, reputation or expected results, arising from the use of or inability to use the site or tool, or from any introduction or failure to make one. Where liability cannot be excluded, it is limited to [amount or cap to be set by the lawyer]. Nothing limits liability that the law does not allow to be limited, such as for fraud or intentional wrongdoing.
Responsibility for what you submit
You are responsible for the information you submit and for how you use the site. If you submit information you were not permitted to share, submit false information, or break these terms, and that causes the office or another person a loss or a claim, you agree to compensate them for the reasonable losses and costs that result, including reasonable legal fees, to the extent the law allows. [Indemnity scope and enforceability to be confirmed by the lawyer.]
Ending access
The office may remove a submission, suspend or end anyone’s access at any time if these terms are not followed or if the office decides it is needed to protect people’s information, and does not have to give a reason. You may stop using the site at any time and may ask the office to remove your information. The parts of these terms that by their nature should continue (confidentiality, responsibility, disclaimers, limits of liability and governing law) continue after access ends.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of [jurisdiction to be chosen by the lawyer], and disputes are for the courts of [venue to be chosen by the lawyer].
Changes to these terms
We may update these terms. The version and effective date at the top show which one applies. When they change in a way that matters, invited members must accept the new version before they continue. Using the site after a change means you accept it.
Contact
To ask a question, or to ask for a correction or removal, reply to the confirmation email you received after submitting. The office will answer by email. [Office contact address to be added.]
